Hogwarts: I Became the Third Dark Lord

Wentworth stood in front of many dark wizards and felt the surging mountain and tsunami. For a moment, Wentworth deeply felt that he seemed to be intoxicated.

At this moment, I saw the ragged wizard who had been crawling on the ground after Wentworth entered the hall, suddenly stood up and ran towards Wentworth.

"This is Carlo, who used to follow your grandfather's side like us, and once swore, the Carlo family, to follow Grindelwald forever. However, his descendants joined the Death Eaters and turned their backs on our witches. party!"

Seeing Carlo approaching, Abernathy whispered in Wentworth's ear.

Hearing Abernathy's explanation, Wentworth nodded slowly.

At this moment, Carlo had come to Wentworth, and then, in front of everyone's eyes, Carlo knelt down at Wentworth's feet again. This move even scared Wentworth. s jump.

But then, Wentworth saw that Carlo stretched out his hands and slowly held up a key.

"Gringott's vault key? Your family's vault key, you always carry with you?"

Seeing Carlo holding up Gringotts' vault key with both hands, Abernathy's face showed a hint of surprise, and he asked in disbelief.

Carlo, on the other hand, did not lift his head, still crawling in front of Wentworth, lowered his head and replied:

"That's right, this is the key of the Carlo family in the Gringotts vault. Those two little brats suddenly shot at me. The goal was also this key, but they didn't succeed."

Looking at the key that Carlo held high in both hands, and looking at the ragged clothes on Carlo's body, Abernathy sighed and said:

"You have a heart too."

After that, Abernathy turned his attention back to Wentworth.

Wentworth looked at the scene in front of him, although he was a little puzzled, but when he saw that Carlo was so old, he was kneeling in front of him. Wentworth quickly stretched out his hand, wanted to help Carlo up, and spoke. said:

"Get up, get up! What are you doing?!"

But Carlo still fell to the ground unmoved, just raised his forehead, looked at Wentworth in front of him, and said very solemnly:

"Tribute to you, my lord!"

After speaking, Carlo lowered his forehead again, held the Gringotts vault key high in both hands, and allowed Wentworth to help him in every possible way, but he never did anything.

"What does he mean?"

In desperation, Wentworth had to ask Rozier and Abernathy on the side.

Hearing Wentworth's question, Rozier slowly explained:

"This is a tradition passed down in ancient wizard families. When a wizard declares his allegiance to another wizard, he will offer his most precious items with both hands. This is tribute and submission."

"If you take the item in his hand, it means that you accept his allegiance. From then on, his life and glory are bound to you."

Hearing Rozier's words, Wentworth once again remembered the house full of treasures he had seen in the family vault of Gringotts, and nodded knowingly.

At this time, Abernathy added:

"Actually, according to the legend, a long time ago, this was a complete ceremony. With the last spell, if he broke his oath in the future, the **** of death would come to take his life and end his bloodline."

"It's just that no one knows that spell now, so it's more of a symbolic meaning."

Hearing this, Wentworth suddenly asked curiously:

"Then if I don't accept that?"

Abernathy obviously did not expect Wentworth to make such a sentence, and he was speechless for a while, while Rozier on the other side replied with a slight smile:

"You can try it!"

So Wentworth said to Carlo, who was crawling on the ground, quite sincerely:

"Actually, you don't have to do this. You have proved your loyalty by appearing here."

Carlo was unmoved and had already maintained that position.

"This key represents the ancestors of the Caro family, who have accumulated wealth for countless years, so it is not appropriate to give it to me like this?"

"I order you, stand up!"

…………

After that, despite Wentworth's exhaustion, Carlo kneeled in front of Wentworth unmoved, holding the Gringotts key high in both hands.

Seeing this scene, after a while, and after Wentworth was helpless, Rozier came out and said:

"It seems that if you don't accept his tribute, he won't get up."

Hearing Rozier's words, Wentworth also smiled helplessly, and then Wentworth no longer hesitated, only to see Wentworth stretched out his right hand without pretentiousness and shoved Carlo The key in his hand was caught in his own hand, and he said:

"Okay, I accept it!"

It wasn't until Wentworth took the key back into his arms that Carlo slowly got up from the ground, with a relieved smile on his stubborn face.

Just when Wentworth wanted to say something, an unexpected scene happened.

I saw that I didn't know where to start, and there were many wizards on the scene, with serious expressions, came up one by one, holding all kinds of items in their hands, I saw them walking slowly in front of Wentworth, slowly. Slowly he said:

"Tribute to you, my lord!"

Afterwards, they saw that they gently placed the items in their hands neatly in front of Wentworth, and after they put down the items, they left in the other direction~www.NovelMTL.com~ for the sake of The wizard behind him cleared his way.

In fact, apart from the Gringotts key that Carlo originally owned, which represented the accumulation of the Carlo family's wealth over the centuries, other items were not very valuable.

However, that doesn't mean they aren't precious enough.

During the whole process, no one stood up to direct, but all the wizards' movements and actions were as quick and orderly as if they had been rehearsed. In the silent hall, only the footsteps of people were heard, and the sound of "pay tribute to you, my master"!

Wentworth looked at the objects that were gradually accumulating in front of him. In a trance, he seemed to see that there was once such a wizard. Countless wizards swore to surrender in front of him. Then, these wizards followed in his footsteps with their mouths open. Loudly shouting slogans, walking towards the unknown front.

This move of the witches and wizards continued for a long time, until the last wizard put the item in his hand in front of Wentworth, Wentworth still did not recover.

Looking at the wizards standing in front of him again, Wentworth was silent for a long time, and finally said slowly:

"Merry Christmas……"
